We are new Pet Parents. Hannah, a 12 week old German Shepherd has joined our family. What a bundle of energy. I'm not used to the commotion! and …
We lost Fred the schnauzer on Thursday. A horrible accident and we are beside ourselves. He was her reason for living. I pray that she can get …
I know where you're coming from in more ways than one. I don't have any kids either partly because of the responsibility that goes with it. My job doesn't pay much and I can barely take care of myself. It's bad enough I now have to take care of my mom. The last thing I need is a kid or two thrown into the mix.
Yes, my mom was always very independent and the loss of that is very hard for her to accept. She's gotten so physically feeble that she now need help getting up from the bathroom stool. But I can sense that she is slowly coming to the realization that she can't really be on her own and needs my help. Hopefully she'll become less stubborn too.
Boy it's been crazy here. Hubby in hospital, Mom having hallucinations one night, having his kids for the Summer, etc., etc. I'm tired. Everyone is fine though. Still really far behind on work but that just doesn't seem like it's ever going to get caught up unless I work weekends too for the next month and I just refuse to do that. We already did work last Saturday. Anyway, I logged on to post a video that a friend shared with me and I thought I'd put it on the boards and on my page b/c it really touched me. How are you doing? Any new word about your Mom, Florida, etc. How is the new addition? I know it was tough in the beginning but now I am so happy with Shiloh. She's still a little psycho but she's a puppy so I am hoping she'll calm down some more with time. Talk to you soon. Hugs!
Oh I know how you feel - what was I thinking kind of thing? The hyperness is enough to drive you crazy. Worst part is my poor Molly is taking a beating - tails, ears, etc. nothing is safe from those razor teeth. She is precious, don't get me wrong but I, like you, am not used to this hyper, craziness at all. I'm too old for this. I vaguely remember going thru this with my Sasha so I know it will pass (I hope and pray) but every dog is so different. I'm really glad your Mom is doing good with her though. Are you sure about sending her to FL? I've noticed my Mom decline even more over the past 6 months. I just don't know what to do anymore. I will write again soon. Gotta get back to work. Huge hugs!
Thank you, Heidimax! I really appreciate it!
How are you doing? I haven't been on in so long. It's been really hectic here. How's your Mom? How is school going - did you start yet? I'll try to get on again soon to send you a note. Big hugs.
